a pictorial history of collectible bottles and related "go-withs" from
the Twin Cities of BRISTOL,TENN-VA.: containing - Whiskey , Patent Medicine, and Drug Store bottles
from @ 1870 to 1920, plus the more "modern" bottles, such as: Soda and Milk up to about 1950, and related go-withs
& collectibles.

I have also
put together lists of known soda bottlers, druggists, medicine manufacturers, distillers, whiskey dealers, saloonists, &
dairymen: their locations & known years of operation for not only Bristol ,but other locales as well.

As additional information is learned,
it will be added to the site.

In an on-going effort
to establish the historical significance of the preservation and researching of bottles in relation to their being important
links to the people, prosperity, and growth of Bristol, biographical information about the business owners will also
be provided, if known, or as it is revealed. In some instances , a bottle may be the sole remaining evidence a company
was even operating in the Bristol, Tenn-Va. area.

Many of the men behind these "bottling" business ventures
risked all in order to provide a service to their town and support their families....whether it be booze, soda, milk, or
medicinal products. You have to remember those were different times and all these businesses were both legitimate and in most
cases honorable professions.

My hope is this site will prove to be both useful
and informative.

Seems my website host is dropping the Trellix format that my site is in and automatically changing it to zeebilio. Not
sure what this means for my site...maybe the end. So..if my site disappears, all my work pictures and everything else
will also vanish.Such is the ever evolving web....
